WASHINGTON — The Department of Defense today resumed acceptance of F-35 Joint Strike Fighter deliveries from prime contractor Lockheed Martin, ending a full year freeze that saw new production jets stuck on the tarmac at Lockheed’s Ft. Worth, Texas facility.

Two F-35A fighters were delivered, one each to Dannelly Field in Alabama and one to Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, according to a joint statement from the F-35 Joint Program Office (JPO) and Lockheed.
